DiskMapper - Hard drive utility

M. Aaron, product user
"Where have you been all my life? I've been searching for some time for a program that would allow me to get an overview of where in the world all my hard disk space is going. The one thing that's missing from any of the good file managers is a good way to find the places to quickly delete files to free up hard disk space."

"DiskMapper takes the GUI concept a step beyond Explorer with a set of six maps to guide you over Windows hilly terrain."

The Washington Post, Paul Gilster
"It didn't take long to convince me that DiskMapper offers a superior solution. When I ran the program, I doubted seriously that I would find any vacant space. But right there in the middle of my D: drive was an enormous set of e-mail messages taking up 4 Mb of space. These were files I no longer needed and had completely forgotten I had. And how about PointCast, the Internet-based news feed software? It's a great service, but I hadn't realized it took 14 Mb of disk"

Chris Garvey, product user
"I very quickly cleaned off 10 mb. There's no question about it - it's useful."

Computer Columnist Bob Schwabach, Universal Press
"Ever wondered just what is occupying all that space on your hard disk? And where it is? Of course you have. DiskMapper for the PC produces a schematic representation of your hard drive. What is that huge area that looks like the Arabian Desert? Could it be the Windows help files? By jove, it is! And so it goes. This is more than a curiosity."

Using DiskMapper is easy...

While viewing your drive map, you can get a close-up view of any subdirectory. Just click on the "Zoom" button. DiskMapper will zoom you in to the contents of the subdirectory and fill up your screen with a more detailed view.

If you don't recognize a file name, you can launch it right from DiskMapper and view its contents.

When you find a file or directory you want to remove, just highlight it on the map and click the "Delete" toolbar button. (You'll get a request to confirm the deletion, so you can't make a mistake.)

If you don't want to delete files or subdirectories, compress them instantly with the "(Un)Zip" button. The file(s) or subdirectories (including all the files inside) will be crunched down by as much as 95%. Uncompressing is just as easy -- just click on the button again. (DiskMapper maps normal and compressed files. Compressed files are shown at the size that they currently take up on your disk.)

Running out of disk space in the middle of loading a program or data file is not fun. Don't get frustrated -- get DiskMapper.

Order BEFORE you get stuck or continue the tour.
